Vegan MoFo ~ Best Sandwich Ever!

I'm a simple food person and don't take a lot of time to 'cook' things often.  When I saw the prompt for Vegan MoFo today I thought of all of the multi-layered massive sandwiches that I am sure to see and be in AWE of.  But when I do sandwiches I usually just use what I have on hand.  One of my favorite things to do is make some sort of a Chickpea Salad or Chickpea Spread to use on my sandwiches.

This is a flashback of a post a did a while back but tweaked a bit...

2 C Chickpeas (mashed or in food processor)
1/2 C Dried Cranberries
1/4 C Chopped Walnuts
1/2 T Minced Garlic


Another one I have done is this...

1 can of Chickpeas
1/3 C of Vegan Mayo
2 tea Yellow Mustard
2 T Chopped Relish/Pickles
1 Rib of Celery, Chopped
1 tea Wildtree Onion & Chive Blend

In case you are new to my blog and haven't heard of Wildtree they have a LOT of vegan options!

    I love chickpeas salad too. The first one sounds amazing, I've never tried cranberries in mine.

      Thanks! I probably wouldn't have tried the cranberries in there but glad I did!

    The cranberry and walnuts are a great idea! Both of these sound super tasty!

      I think together they give it sweet, salty, and tang! Great combo!

    I love how you kept things simple- MoFo can get a bit crazy right? I especially like the idea of the first one!!!

      Thanks! I don't know if it's lack of ingredients at times, lack of knowledge, or perhaps I'm just lazy! LOL

    Mmm, those look simple and effective. Is there anything we can't do with chickpeas?!

    I love that you're a simple food person and both of those sandwich spreads look delicious!!! I'm always happy to find recipes that have a few simple ingredients that I already have in the house.

      That's how I roll LOL - it's usually because I'm missing other ingredients tho teehee

    I like to keep things simple for food too, a high raw whole foods diet celebrates whole ingredients for me that can be thrown together quick. But these chickpea salads look amazing and worth the time since hubby loves sandwiches. :-)

      Thanks! They are great to throw together in my Ninja Blenders. Now that I have high speed blenders I still use my Ninja's as a rockin' food processor!

    That sounds like a great sammich Jennifer! I like mashing chickpeas - what a nice texture it adds to things, especially a good sandwich like this.

      Mashed chickpeas are great - I agree! I love adding different flavors to them to see what kind of creations I can come up with, too!

      Thanks! Similar ingredients but still very different taste between the two!
